For some reason, when bananas and other fruit (specifically apples) are settled together, the combination causes the bananas to ripen (and then OVER ripen) in a matter of a few hours.

I am not sure why this is, just that it happens.

If you have a bowl of oranges and a bowl of bananas sitting on the table which bowl of fruit would go bad first and how long does it take?

It depends on the variety of fruit, their age when placed on the table and the conditions in the room. Normally, I would expect the bananas to go bad first. A bunch of bananas would all ripen and over-ripen at the same pace. Some of the oranges may develop mold, but not usually all at the same time.
